Nissan has confirmed that the 100% electric Ariya crossover, with Nismo treatment, will arrive in the national market in the last quarter of 2024.
Based on the Ariya e-4ORCE and with a dynamic design, the Nismo variant comes with improvements in the motorization to ensure better performance and acceleration.
In this sense, the entry-level Nismo B6 e-4ORCE version has two electric motors, which are powered by a 66kWh battery and produce 367 hp of power and a maximum torque of 560 Nm.
On the other hand, the top-of-the-range version is the Nismo B9 e-4ORCE with a 91 kWh battery, which powers two motors that enable a combined power of 435 hp and 600 Nm of maximum torque.
The extremely dynamic performance of this Nismo version of the Ariya is achieved with a 10% increase in peak motor power, combined with a special acceleration tuning and an exclusive Nismo driving mode that maximizes response. For those who like strong emotions, Nissan has equipped the Ariya Nismo with an evocative sound of Formula E racing.
The NISMO’s special tuning for each chassis component, combined with the e-4ORCE electric four-wheel drive control technology and dedicated tires mounted on 20” aluminum wheels, allows Nissan to announce that the model generates superior stability and turning capability, as well as superior straight-line stability and improved high-speed cornering capability.
The exterior combines Nismo’s dynamism with various details that enhance aerodynamic performance and reduce friction to provide greater downforce at higher speeds.
In the interior, the Japanese brand has opted for a more sporty image of the 100% electric model. For this, the entire cabin is black, including the synthetic wood finishes, where the red details stand out, especially the sporty steering wheel. Red is also used in the air vents placed on the dashboard. On the other hand, the seats are upholstered in synthetic suede and perforated with red details.
